Cookbook celebrating outdoor cooking and eating, from the back garden to the beach

The first plant-based cookbook from River Cottage's Gill Meller, 120 beautiful seasonal recipes

In Outdoor Cooking, Gill Meller explains every aspect of cooking out in the open. He will take you back to basics with a guide to building the perfect fire, and reinvigorate your summer barbecue by cooking bread on it, grilling Indian-style kebabs, smoking fish or roasting succulent joints of meat. You can also find out how to make the most of a pizza oven or Kamado-style clay barbecue (popularised by the Big Green Egg) and, if you're feeling adventurous, there are comprehensive instructions for spit roasting larger pieces of meat or making a smouldering earth oven. With an introduction by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and plenty of mouth-watering photographs, this book will rekindle your passion for the great outdoors and spark new ideas for creative cooking in the wild.

The highly anticipated follow-up to the award-winning Gather, by River Cottage head chef Gill Meller - 120 recipes that move through the day and through the year

Gather is a cookbook that celebrates simplicity and nature, both in ingredients and cooking styles. Head Chef at River Cottage for 10 years, Gill Meller showcases 120 brand new recipes inspired by the landscapes in which he lives and works. Featuring chapters on foods from Moorland (game and herbs), Garden (tomatoes, salads, soft fruits), Farm (pork, dairy, honey), Field (rye, barley, wheat, oats), Seashore (crab, seaweed, oysters), Orchard (apples, pears, cherries), Harbour (fish and seafood), and Woodland (mushrooms, damsons, blackberries), Gill gently guides the reader through simple recipes, with no need for obscure ingredients or complicated cooking. With great food at its heart, Gather is the most contemporary of cookbooks, with photography that captures a year of the best cooking and eating.

In the fourteenth River Cottage Handbook, Gill Meller shows how to keep pigs and cook with pork.
